The verdict

Eco Tan wins on skincare credibility. Three Warriors on smell.

Both are certified organic, Australian-made, and safe for sensitive skin. Eco Tan Winter Skin has the longer skincare track record and the dermatologist endorsements — it's the gradual tan you'd buy for skin first, colour second. Three Warriors wins if you want a gradual that smells genuinely pleasant (coconut + jojoba) and don't need the medical-grade positioning.
